I was referred to Dr. Hawass after a lengthy period of chronic back pain. I was in a very dark place emotionally then. I was very scared (and anxious) and I knew that I had to get help. I have learned over time that pain management is both an emotional journey and a physical one. He was able to quickly identify what was the source of my pain. He understands your pain and how it would impact your life. He is honest, and is a very skilled doctor. I have asked him a ton of questions which he has always been able to answer. He is very professional, has a nice personality, and I’ve always felt quite comfortable going to him for treatments. He has encouraged me to become more active with regular exercise and to manage/reduce my weight. He has reduced my pain significantly and has helped me to improve my function. I am happy that I’m now getting a solid nights sleep. I credit him for turning my life around. My energy level has also improved, and I’m getting a lot more stuff done at home. He is the best doctor that I’ve ever seen in my life. I feel that I’ve finally got my life back. I’m very grateful…. Less

I have been seeing Dr. Mark Hawass for 8-10 years. I have a lot of arthritis and chronic pain in my body plus migraines. I find he listens attentively, is compassionate and gives great advice. Not only for treatments, but also exercise, diet and sleep patterns. He does not make you ever feel uncomfortable. He never brushes me off like other doctors have in the past. He treats me like a person and not a number. I spent a decade of not being listened to by other health care professionals and not having a holistic approach which I have always had a preference to. If you are at your wits end, then this is the doctor for whatever ails you for pain. Less

Dr. Mark Hawass is the most compassionate and knowledgeable doctor in such a specialized field that has opened my eyes to a whole new beginning to life again, a life without chronic pain. I highly recommend if you have chronic pain to seek this treatment. I am 44 years old and had been suffering chronic Costochondritis for 7 years and many doctors refused to treat me. Dr. Hawass without hesitation took my case and I am eternally grateful. I could barely sleep, work, struggled to just do simple daily activities and haven’t been able to enjoy sports or activities that I have missed. After three treatments I now sleep better, I can now do simple tasks I never thought I would be able to do again and over time once I rebuild my muscles up I will also be able to enjoy activities I once loved. My pain has been reduced by 70% and I have hope again and look forward to a whole new life. All I can say it thank you. Less

Dr. Hawass initially saw me as a consult. However, he has helped me start resolving a problem that has been a major issue and was affecting my life because of a car accident. He is extremely informative about new procedures which may benefit me and has answered all of my many questions.

Very professional yet friendly. I was not able to do anything before I went to this clinic. Now I'm almost back to normal. Able to do almost everything. Just waiting for surgery.

I have suffered with chronic pain for years. Dr Hawass' treatment and care allows me to live a near normal life. I appreciate that he takes to time to listen and provide thoughtful advice beyond the treatments that further help me improve. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Hawass to anyone.

Before Dr. Mark Hawass: 7 years ago, I was a 10/10 for the terrible pain scale. Due to a L5, S1 back injury, I was highly medicated on pain pills and I could barely walk. I was not able to work as an elementary school teacher or look after my family. I struggled in many ways for months and months in a medicated pain fog. During the pain: Within a year of the injury, I met Dr. Hawass who began a weekly nerve blocking treatment on my back through CPM. Overall, I used a multifaceted approach to heal including nerve blocks, swimming and stretching regularly along with physiotherapy. At this time, I began a very slow healing process. I attended a useful chronic pain management 6 week workshop, offered by the CPM centre at Dr. Hawass’s workplace which I later learned was funded by individuals who worked for the CPM Centre. (A BIG thank you to all, it helped me so much). After a year and a half of nerve blocking etc., I returned to part-time teaching. My life has changed in many ways due to this permanent injury including bi-monthly nerve-blocking (occasionally I take Tylenol or Advil nowadays) but I can function as a wife, mother and employee which I never thought was possible to do at first. Luckily I had good advice along the way... On the Road to Recovery: In reflection, I credit much of my healing to Dr. Hawass along with my physiotherapist and a strong commitment to heal myself. Dr. Hawass made a personal connection with me. He shares his abundance of knowledge about health and psychological well-being. Dr. Hawass knows what pain feels like and he shares his personal healing journey which makes it that much more meaningful when he cares for you and suggests ways to improve yourself. I highly recommend Dr. Hawass. He’s genuine and very knowledgeable about chronic pain. Dr. Mark Hawass: Thank you for all you have done for me, I am forever grateful. Lucy Wunderlich Less

Dr. Hawass has been excellent in treating my chronic pain. I'm so grateful to him for helping me get back to doing the normal things I love each day.

Great place and amazing doctor. Dr Hawass has made a difference in my life I never thought possible.

Dr. Hawass is fantastic! After having a brain tumor removed, it left me with nerve damage that was debilitating at times. I'm pretty much pain free now and only see him every four months. Thanks to him I have my life back.

My quality of life has improved significantly, and my sleep at night has definitely improved. Several friends have told me recently that I no longer look tired all of the time. Dr. Hawass has advised me all along about all of the little things that I could do to help myself. I am incredibly grateful for his whole person approach. He has reduced my stress and anxiety levels just by being very calming and soothing. He is incredibly personable, empathetic doctor and is extremely easy to talk to. He understands how much your pain affects your life. I had a lot of questions which nobody in the past could answer, he is able to answer my questions. I’d defiantly recommend Dr. Mark Hawass because he is incredibly gentle, patient, skilled and experienced pain management doctor. He is able to deal with your chronic pain, is well read, witty, and has an incredible amount of knowledge in so many areas. This is the very first review for anyone that I’ve ever written for a person....I am extremely grateful... Less

I am so grateful to have been assigned Dr. Hawass as my doctor at CPM Oshawa 5 years ago. I had just been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and was struggling with chronic pain, particularly low back and hip pain. Mark listened to me and was always willing to change courses when something wasn't working. He took the time to understand what was happening and to develop treatment plans that were ever changing until we found something that worked. I never felt rushed or like an inconvenience as is so often the case when you have an invisible illness. As a result of his ongoing care I am finally able to return to work after 6 years on LTD. I highly recommend him!! Less

Before I met Dr. Hawass, life for me was highly restricted due to my pain which started in 2002. I needed help to get up of the couch, I'd sieze up so bad at night that I couldn't roll over in bed & in the morning I needed help just to get out of bed. If I did yard work, or gardening, which I love to do, I'd get to the point it was difficult for me to get up & down from a chair. My pain was const... More

Before I met Dr. Hawass, life for me was highly restricted due to my pain which started in 2002. I needed help to get up of the couch, I'd sieze up so bad at night that I couldn't roll over in bed & in the morning I needed help just to get out of bed. If I did yard work, or gardening, which I love to do, I'd get to the point it was difficult for me to get up & down from a chair. My pain was constant & getting worse. My back muscles spasmed all day & the nerves in my neck, back & hips were constantly getting pinched causing stinging, burning pain & frequent immobility where all I was capable of was doing dishes. Even cleaning the house was extremely difficult for me. Since I started seeing Dr. Hawass at CPM for the procedures, my pain levels get as low as a 2 on a scale of 1 to 10. I can clean & do yard work & gardening. I can get myself out of bed & up from sitting on the couch without help. My pain & flexibility is the best it's been in well over 10 years. Dr. Hawass even coaches me in holistic methods & diet alterations to increase my mobility & it works. Nor is any of it difficult to do or restrictive. Dr. Hawass listens to my concerns & always answers my questions with practical answers & describes things in detail in ways I can understand. If I ask to have something looked at, Dr. Hawass complies efficiently & explains what needs to be done & why. I would highly recommend CPM & especially Dr. Mark Hawass. My life has changed completely for the better since I started attending appointments & having procedures done at CPM. Without it, my quality of life would be extremely restricted & painful. I am extremely grateful for Dr. Hawass's expertise & the helpful staff at CPM. Less

Over the last year and a bit I had severe pain in my lower right abdomen/rib area, went through several months of CT scans, abdominal scans, bone scans and etc. no doctor could figure out what was wrong so I was referred to Dr. Hawass. On my first visit he diagnosed my problem, Costochondritis , was I shocked! After my treatments were going good and pain was dramatically reduced, Dr. Hawass agreed to start treating me for my 16+ years of Arthritic chronic pain in my lower back, hips, shoulders and neck. I have had the most dramatic change in my ability to sleep at night and my activities have increased significantly. I have to admit I was very sceptical as I had been to a pain clinic before with limited success but his treatments have turned my negativity into positivity. His bed side manners are additionally a positive. Thank you Dr. Hawass! Less

I have been receiving various treatments from Dr. Mark Hawass for several years now. I can honestly say that this man not only validated the suffering I had been going through for decades prior but also developed a treatment plan that drastically improved my quality of life and overall happiness. He works in tandem with your family physician to find a treatment regimen that is best suited to your needs. He is extremely knowledgeable , ridiculously experienced, gentle, skilled, fast, efficient and empathetic and utilizes a combination of interventional and preventional treatment models to provide whole patient pain care. I simply cannot imagine where I would be today without the ongoing treatments that I regularly see him for. Less

The injections / Treatment plan helped me reduce pain in my neck / Shoulder / Arms by 70% and increased function Before my injury I had a career as a chef. Worked long hours and was still able to do my job of a wife and mother of triplets. Then I injured myself and my life seemed to come to a halt. I couldn’t walk 5 to 10 steps without having to stop due to pain. I couldn’t make my way upstairs without resting every few steps. I couldn’t lift, push or pull anything without my centre back, lower back and neck experiencing extreme pain. I used a cane, walker and at times a wheelchair for assistance. I needed to lay down throughout the day numerous times to take pressure off my spine. I couldn’t drive long distances. I couldn’t walk at a normal pace because my back would freeze up and become painful and at at time I couldn’t hold myself up would fine myself on the ground. The pain would keep me up at night and brought my overall out on life down. Without medication I was in constant pain. The pain reached a 10 everyday. Then Dr. Hawass came into my life. His care and patience made feel like someone finally understood what I was going through and the ladies at the front desk are delightful and always have a welcoming smile. I was reluctant on proceeding with the injections at first but thought I had to try something. Dr. Hawass worked at my pace and comfort level. He took the time to explain everything thoroughly and gave me different options to help manage my pain. He listened when I need to vent and always left me feeling positive. The nerve block injections are working well for my neck pain. I saw a 60% recovery from only four months of weekly sessions. Now, at 7 months I see him every two weeks for injections. Ive had 4 epidurals and two lidocaine treatments. The combination of the treatment plan works. I am amazed at how my life has changed since I started seeing Dr. Hawass. He showed me how to go about my daily routine at my pace and still get things done at my comfort level. It’s been over a year and a half of dealing with this life changing injury and I can finally say I have a better quality of life because of him. All the things I thought I couldn’t do anymore are starting to seem possible again. I would recommend this clinic not only because it worked for me but because the staff cares about you!

Dr. Hawass is excellent. The procedure has helped me increase my quality of life. He takes the time to listen. I highly recommend him to anyone with shoulder pain.

Dr. Harass took the time to listen to my concerns and helped guide me towards the best treatment plan. I received my regular procedures through the doctor and I finally felt relief after living with chronic pain for 7 years. I highly recommend Dr Hawass.
